It's helpful to have a few stress-busting techniques to reach for when stress starts to creep up on you and take you hostage. Here are a few of my favorite busters. Try them yourself and see if you find them as helpful for relieving stress as I do.

My thoughts: This article proves to be very useful. Although nothing in here is really ground-breaking, these steps are ones that everyone should at least take into consideration when dealing with stress. These are just silly ways to get rid of stress, and just by reading them I can tell that at least a couple of them would work. The one thing that I don't particularly like about this article, is that it involves putting yourself in a situation that many may find uncomfortable. But, it is also apparent that this article doesn't take itself too seriously, which I suppose i can appreciate. I do not think that i would use many of these techniques to help relieve my stress, but i hope somebody out there benefits from the article.
